        Great article! While we should always be seeking a better life let’s not look at the present as a decline, but as a great time to keep progress moving!

        'Has improved'!?! Yes. On average (that'd be statistical mean). We think the variance between the cohort(s) improving and the cohort(s) not improving is increasing, whether delta might be accelerating. (Personal empirical impressions/observations only. No definitive studies.)

        I'm coming up with a "tech" based platform - promotes jobs, environment, future of humankind. Basically - our best bet for a better living, food, environment, etc. is through the socially responsible development and implementation of technology. (any takers?) #MAGA
